I'm interested in getting a sword made by Fabri Armorum and just wanted to ask here if anyone had experience with their 'feather' blades. I own a longsword by them which I think is their 'slim' variant and I absolutely love it.

My main concern is with how well these 'feather' blades hold up in combat (do they burr too easily and so on). I regularly do blade-on-blade re-enactment combat and am wondering if such a blade would be suitable, or if it would be better to go for the 'slim' variant.

Would be great to hear from someone with experience of the feather blades.
